Coronavirus risk factor by Sugeno fuzzy logic

Abstract

World recently faced big challenges with the pandemic of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Governments suffer from the problem of appropriately identifying the risk factor of this virus and establishing their safety procedures accordingly. This paper concentrates on designing a coronavirus risk factor (CRF) by the power of Sugeno fuzzy logic (SFL). The main advantage of the CRF is that it can provides a quick and suitable risk evaluation. According to the degree of severity, three essential parameters are considered: number of infected cases, number of people in intensive care units (ICU) and number of deaths. All of these parameters are provided per population. Such interesting and promising outcomes are attained, where the total effect is found equal to 95.3%.
